Siping Tires Improves Traction
There are a lot of options in the winter for helping keep traction in snowy conditions. First, and least fun, is chaining up. Sometimes, it’s required by law. There’s no way around that. But when it’s not, there are other options.
For us, the best – and cheapest! – is siping. It’s done by the dealer post-manufacturing. Claims by dealers are that the sipes don’t damage or speed up wear of the tread, and that it increases traction up to 200%.
